AIP funds airport infrastructure investments supporting transportation, environmental protection, and long-term economic benefits. Grant recipients must maintain an airport layout plan for the duration of the grant agreement, typically 20 years, and retain accounting records for 3 years after submission of the final expenditure report. Environmental impact assessment is required, and preapplication coordination through the appropriate FAA field office is mandatory. Applicants must formally accept grant offers no later than September 30 for grant funds appropriated in that fiscal year.
